Possible Causes
Hard water with insufficient detergent, Rinse aid under-dosing, Booster or final rinse temperature too low, No water softener or softener malfunction
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow wares to cool before handling.
- Check water hardness: Test incoming water hardness. If above Hobart’s recommended range, install or service a water softener.
- Adjust chemicals: Increase detergent and rinse aid dosing within supplier guidelines to improve soil removal and sheeting.
- Verify rinse temperature: Ensure final rinse temperature is at specification to aid drying and reduce spotting.
- Descale machine: Run a descaling cycle using a Hobart-approved descaler to remove internal limescale from the tank, booster, and arms.
- Monitor results: If spotting persists, work with your chemical supplier to fine-tune the chemical program.
